Power Queen 12,8V 100Ah Self-heating LiFePO4 Battery - Built-in heating pad
The self-heating LiFePO4 battery 12V 100Ah has 2 heating pads attached to both sides, which ensure sufficient heating and more comprehensive protection of the battery.
How do the heating pads work?
Step 1: Connect the battery to the charger. (DC charging voltage: 14.2V - 14.6V, DC charging current > 10A)
Step 2: The temperature sensors measure the battery temperature.
- When the battery temperature is between -20℃ and 5℃/-4℉ and 41℉, the BMS will start to heat the battery through the heating pads, and the battery will not be charged during the heating process.
- If the battery temperature is > 5℃/41℉, the battery will be charged normally and the heating function will not be activated.
Step 3: When the battery temperature reaches 10℃/50℉, the heating stops and the battery begins charging. (This typically takes approximately 90 minutes from -10℃ to 10℃/14℉ to 50℉, and approximately 150 minutes from -20℃ to 10℃/-4℉ to 50℉.)
Features of Power Queen 12.8V 100Ah Self-heating LiFePO4 Battery

Summary of Power Queen 12,8V 100Ah series
We've introduced these four different batteries. Let's now give a brief summary of them.
Similarities between the batteries
-
All these 12.8V 100Ah batteries have the same nominal voltage, energy, internal resistance, service life, charging method, charging voltage and recommended charging current.
-
All batteries come with a 5-year warranty. If you experience any problems with your battery during the warranty period, please contact service.de@ipowerqueen.comWe will actively solve your problems.
Differences between batteries
- Dimensions & Weight
Each battery has its own size and weight. The Mini is the smallest and lightest of all. If battery size is important to you, for example, for a trolling motor, the Mini would be an excellent choice.
- Protection against low temperatures
Of these four batteries, only Smart OTCB and Self-Heating have the low-temperature function. If you live in regions with long winters, batteries with low-temperature protection may be a better choice for you.
- Battery cells
Unlike alternative batteries, the Mini uses pouch LiFePO4 battery cells, as opposed to prismatic LiFePO4 battery cells used by others.
Pouch cells are characterized by their flexibility and light weight, making them ideal for portable applications such as mobile devices and power banks. They are often used when space constraints and weight considerations are critical factors for the application. Pouch cells also demonstrate a commendable ability to maintain voltage levels and discharge rates even in colder temperatures.
This distinction contributes significantly to the Mini achieving a lighter and more compact design.
FAQS about Power Queen 12.8V 100Ah Series LiFePO4 Battery
1. Can I connect Classic 12V 100Ah and Mini in series or parallel?
Unfortunately, combining these two batteries would negatively impact their individual lifespans due to their different cells and internal structures.
2. Can these LiFePO4 batteries be used as starting batteries for golf carts?
Unfortunately, all of Power Queen's batteries to date have been deep-cycle batteries. Deep-cycle batteries are carefully engineered to deliver a constant flow of current over an extended period of time, while starter batteries are specifically designed to deliver a burst of current over a short period of time.
3. Can I charge this LiFePO4 battery with a lead-acid battery charger?
Not recommended as it may affect the performance and lifespan of lithium iron phosphate batteries. Read the blog to learn more about charging with lead-acid battery chargers to find out.
